1711 1777 Autograph Revolutionary Wooster
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the image of David Wooster, an influential American revolutionary soldier and political figure during the late 18th century. Born in 1711, Wooster rose to prominence as a leader in the Connecticut militia during the French and Indian War. His military prowess and dedication to the cause of colonial resistance against British rule earned him the respect and admiration of his fellow patriots. Wooster played a pivotal role in the early stages of the American Revolution, serving as a brigadier general in the Continental Army under George Washington. He was a delegate to the Connecticut Constitutional Convention in 1776 and later became a member of the Continental Congress. The autograph on this print, dated 1777, adds an intriguing layer of historical significance to the image. It is believed that Wooster inscribed the print for a friend or colleague, providing a personal connection to the past. The signature serves as a reminder of the man behind the image, a man who dedicated his life to the cause of American independence and left an indelible mark on the history of our nation. David Wooster's legacy extends beyond the battlefield, as he was also a respected businessman and community leader. He served as a judge, a selectman, and a representative in the Connecticut General Assembly. His contributions to the American Revolution and his impact on colonial politics make him an important figure in the annals of American history. This print serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and dedication of the men and women who fought for American independence. It is a testament to the enduring spirit of the American Revolution and the indomitable will of those who dared to challenge the status quo in the pursuit of freedom and self-governance.
